It is learned that the statue is being constructed on a 32 feet tall building.

A team of Design Consultants, an entity of engineering giant Larsen & Toubro (L&T), has submitted a few designs of what is going to be the ‘NTR Memorial project’ planned in about 200 acres, which include 14 acres earmarked for the statue.
